Cheapest price for professional tinting?

I didn't think you could tint the front windscreen legally and you have to have no more than 30% tints in the front windows and no more than 70% tints in the read windows.

Windscreen is illegal to tint. Back 3 can be as dark as you like front 2 have to let through at least 70% of light. Which basically means you can't tint them as they let through about 70/80% from standard

Yeah when I got pulled over the policeman said that to me 1st, I corrected him and told him to check it with VOSA, according to VOSA the back windows can be tinted to any amount, the front windows have to let through atleast 70% light and the windscreen has to let through atleast 75% light.

You cant tint windscreen and if you put any tint on the front 2 windows it will be over the legal requirment, I have just done a proffesional tinting course and that what i have been told. I have 50% film on the front of mine and it really isnt much darker than standard but if tested with a light meter it will be illegal. To be honest the there isnt many police carry light meters around my area and its still very clear to see driver day or nite

As for price you should be looking at £140 to £150 for a 3dr

PS I am in process of setting up a tint shop so if anyone is interested in the Newcastle area PM me for a price.

Im sure the front windscreen can be tinted (well you used to be able to) but the law may have changed recently im not 100% sure

Oops just read it properly you obviously cant now!
